Both Famitsu and Dengeki PlayStation this week have features where they talk to game creators on their ambitions for 2017.

First, here are the interesting tidbits from Famitsu:

Arc System Works’ Toshimichi Mori

“Since I’ve created fighting games for so long, I want to work on a different genre next. The genres I’ve wanted to make from back in the days are academy stories, mystery (investigation stories), horror, robot stories, and my dream of a space opera. I’m thinking about making something from these.”

Idea Factory’s Norihisa Kochiwa

“I’m working on an innovative new RPG. Since I’m taking on a new challenge technically, it has a significantly different visual impression from what I’ve done so far.”

Idea Factory’s Kenta Kanno

“I’m working! Please forgive me as that’s all I am saying for now.”

Aquaplus’ Naoya Shimokawa

“I’m putting all of my effort into Dungeon Travelers 2-2: The Maiden Who Fell into Darkness and the Book of Beginnings. Additional things are also progressing, so please look forward to them.”

Atlus’ Kazuyuki Yamai

“I’m preparing for the Shin Megami Tensei 25th anniversary project. As for the new title, it will be a secret for just a little longer.”

Kadokawa Games’ Yoshimi Yasuda

“In addition to God Wars, I want to announce two titles.”

Capcom’s Minae Matsukawa

“I’m working on the development of Dragon’s Dogma Online 3.0. I’m steadily working on the development of other titles, as well.”

“The western version of Dragon Quest Heroes II is in development. I’ll be able to say more in a little while, but a new project is in development as well.”

Square Enix’s Kadoi Nobuki

“I can’t say right now. (Laughs.) If you have this survey next year, I may be able to say something then.”

Square Enix’s Yosuke Saito

“My delusion is to put out NieR, then Dragon Quest XI, then the PlayStation 4 and Switch versions of Dragon Quest X in that order. It’s a delusion to the very end.”

“We’re working on a number of titles that will get our users’ antennae hard.”

Bandai Namco’s Yuusuke Tomizawa

“Since we’re working hard on the development of a new God Eater for consoles, I want to quickly deliver a follow-up report. February 4 is the series’ seventh anniversary. Please look forward to new developments.”
